ACI Design Training

Addressing Digital Business Initiatives

Introduction

Cisco Application Centric Infrastructure (ACI) provides an automation-centric approach to deploying data center switching fabrics. During this workshop, our engineers will help you explore how ACI constructs are used to create an intent-based network that delivers the speed and agility required by your digital business initiatives.

What you will accomplish

Work with our engineers to design an ACI framework that incorporates the time-saving features of ACI, provides a platform for automation through programmability, and integrates the services that secure and enhance the delivery of your applications. During this workshop, WWT experts will discuss the following:

Overcoming the challenges of traditional data center design with ACI

Designing for performance using cloud-scale architectures

Leveraging automation with ACI

Policy model deployment use cases

Multiple data center considerations

Cloud integration

ACI migration strategies

WORK WITH WWT EXPERTS

WWT uses the cutting-edge resources of our Advanced Technology Center (ATC) to provide hands-on access to the latest ACI features. You’ll have direct access to Cisco Nexus switching and as you collaborate with our engineers to evaluate designs that provide efficiency and scalability to you data center.

Additional Resources

Netrounds plays a key role in WWT’s service quality assurance offering through its ability to automatically test and monitor services from the end-user view immediately after provisioning or after updates or changes.

Automation is critical for reducing engineering time, effort and errors. But the same methods you use to improve engineering efficiency may not work for large scale rollouts or client services. Learn how WWT can help you make the right decisions for your business needs.

With a proven record of deploying some of the largest and most complicated UC upgrades, WWT has developed a multi-tiered approach to streamline the upgrade process, which helps our customers save money, and avoid risk and complexity.

This white paper illustrates how the Cisco Application Centric Infrastructure (ACI) can be implemented as a single fabric stretched between two data centers, with the ability to optimally route traffic to and out of the data center where the resource is located.
